Watching the first-year team players encouraging each other and walking off the court one by one, LeBron James's expression finally no longer looked so calm and composed.

Those guys really want to win, they really want to win and they're willing to pay the price.

What about the second graders?

Except for Anthony, no one is willing to fight hard.

That's right, even James and Wade don't want to.

They are willing to contribute, but they are far from the level of desperate efforts.

Anthony looked at James and Wade and said nothing.

He can understand.

But he still didn't want to give up and give up this opportunity to win the MVP of the rookie game at home.

On the other side, Carlesimo found himself completely speechless.

Because these first graders can handle everything by themselves.

"Continue to stabilize the score. Gordon can't leave the game now. He must help you open up space. I'll come on when I need to resist their crazy counterattack in the last quarter." Tony Allen took the initiative to give up the opportunity to Gordon.

I can't imagine that they were fighting in the NCAA finals half a year ago.

"On the offensive end, we must pass the ball, share the ball more, and don't indulge in individual singles." Okafor said to his teammates while applauding.

"If you need it, I can rush up at any time. You just need to shout to me, Wei." Although Harris was panting, he still had a smile on his face.

Then, all eyes turned to Wayne, the initiator of this plan.

"Well, let's continue to maintain the original lineup. In the third quarter, we will attack first, and in the fourth quarter, we will defend." Wayne nodded and finalized everything.

Carlesimo: "I really want to go back to the hotel..."

After the game restarted, Barkley immediately regained his energy.

If you want to watch a real game during the NBA All-Star Weekend, today is your only chance!

The second grade team no longer had the arrogance they had at the beginning of the second half.

Although they are still very strong, everyone now believes that it is possible for the 2004 class to win the competition.

After Wayne came on the field, he clapped his hands vigorously: "If we persist for one and a half more quarters, we can embrace victory!"

Everyone nodded silently and took a defensive posture.

Anthony did not talk to James or Wade this time. He would resolve his own matters.

"Carmelo Anthony can't win." Looking at Anthony, who started holding the ball from the backcourt, Artest in the stands shook his head proudly.

"Why?" Beside Artest, his hair Odom asked.

"Why? Because Wayne plays and trains with the best small forwards in the league every day. Wayne is more than enough to deal with Cameron."

Odom smiled and shook his head. Fortunately, he had been accustomed to Artest's character since he was a child.

Otherwise, Artest's head will probably be blown off.

On his first offense after returning from the game, Anthony broke through Iguodala with the ball.

But as soon as Guagua burst in, he found that the restricted area was full of people.

The first-grade team begins to shrink its defense!

Anthony gritted his teeth and rushed in with all his strength.

After another round of overturning, the referee blew the whistle.

Defensive foul, Anthony has to make two free throws.

"It was a brutal game. The first-year team's defense didn't give an inch, and Cameron was not afraid at all. If every All-Star game could be this big, David Stern wouldn't have to worry about All-Star weekend ratings.

Already."

Barkley's ridicule is obviously unrealistic, because if the All-Star Game were played like this, no one would be willing to participate.

Moreover, not all fans really like to watch this kind of All-Star game that is always interrupted by fouls and free throws.

Anthony stood on the free throw line, thinking he could easily score two points.

But Anthony missed the first free throw!

"Failed to hit, this is really worse for Cameron. Although he is currently the player with the highest score in the game, if he cannot win the game, then there will be no MVP."

Anthony's free throw shooting rate this season is close to 80%. Nuggets fans who often watch Anthony's games know very well that Anthony's free throw shooting looks more accurate than the statistics.

That's because Anthony's free throw shooting is very stable most of the time, but when Anthony's physical fitness begins to fluctuate, his free throw shooting percentage will be significantly affected.

In terms of physical fitness, it may not be practical for Anthony to try to equalize the score by playing alone.

Even if he has this ability, his physical fitness does not allow it.

Fortunately, Anthony made a solid hit on his second free throw, thus avoiding the embarrassment.

"I'll go defend Wei, and you can recover on the defensive end for a while." Bosh patted Anthony on the shoulder when he was retreating.

Anthony nodded silently, really...so unwilling!

Then, Wayne found that it was Bosh who was defending him. Moreover, Bosh's defensive attitude was obviously much better than in the first half.

The difficulty of scoring has increased again.

So this time Wayne directly pulled Bosh outside the three-point line, creating a lineup for Howard with all the shots.

This idea was naturally proposed by Wayne. After all, he had seen the entire process of Howard leading the Magic to the Finals in his previous life.

Howard held the ball and beat Haslem in isolation. Although his technique was rough, Haslem's body was completely blown away.

The first turn around and layup, Howard missed.

But after taking the shot, Howard could immediately take off a second time and continue to tip-in.

For the second time, Howard made up for it and the score continued to widen!

"The tactics of the first-year team are very interesting. I don't know how coach Carlesimo arranged such effective tactics in a short period of time."

Barkley found himself admiring Carlesimo.

Carlesimo was praised while lying down.

In the sophomore team's subsequent counterattack, Anthony was still closely pressed. This time, the ball was handed to Wade.

But Wade faced some difficulties when faced with the shrinking defense of the first-year team.

Damn it, is it deliberately targeting me and Zhanzhan?

How can we break out if you are like this?

At this time, Gordon also directly let Wade go.

Can Wade stand this kind of anger? Who are you trying to kill?

"Duang!"

The basketball hoop comes out, Wade makes a long shot, and you are the one who will be eliminated!

"It's very smart. The first-year team's defense worked again. They forced the opponent to take shots away from the basket. Although the second-year team has more stars, they all need to have the ball in their hands, and James and Wade's shots are also good.

One of its weaknesses.

Coach Carlesimo knows the second grade very well and his tactics are just right."

Carlesimo: "Why do I feel like someone is always talking about me? Damn, when will the game end? I'm so sleepy!"

The first graders once again completed their defense, which boosted their confidence.

At the same time, their trust in Wayne soared.

Because they followed Wayne's tactics and they really achieved results.

Although Wayne is now a professional player, to be honest, he is not really a tactician. He just absorbs the defensive experience of future people.

Of course, it’s not like the second-year team can’t score a single goal.

For example, after one round, James took on Wayne's defense and scored a 2+1, once again letting people see the unmatched talent of the 2003 class.

It's really hard to score a goal.

They did not play the offensive game they expected, but fell into a quagmire under the clear strategy of the first grade and struggled.

In this way, the score difference cannot be effectively reduced.

I guess the second-year players just want to scold them now. Who would have thought that they would be targeted during a rookie game?

Who could come up with such a disgusting idea?

Wayne: Ahem, it’s me who is both civil and military.

Just like that, the third quarter of the sophomore game was extremely ugly.

Although they started to get serious, the point difference didn't narrow much.

After the third quarter, the first grade team still led by 14 points.

Moreover, they exhausted their opponents.
